Re: rdflicense

Thanks for the update Victor....great work!

> a) ODRL actions have been replaced in the latest update by CreativeCommons terms. But the former were class instances (e.g. odrl:distribute) and the latter are OWL classes (e.g. cc:Distribution). How should we proceed?

What options are there?

> b) A license should be a odrl:Set, certainly. Yet, for a newcomer is hard to understand this polysemic word, and I prefer odrl:Policy even if less specific: everybody catches the meaning at a glimpse.

"Set" was used from its mathematical foundation ("a collection of distinct objects").
It was to be used as a general purpose type when  you are just making a collection of statements, not asserting an "agreement" or "offer" to any particular party.

Is there a better word?

Since odrl:Policy is its parent class, what is the semantics of an ODRL Policy with type odrl:Policy?
